Dragonfly

by Kenty

Taken in my Sister's garden in Spain. Is there too much colour here which detracts from the Dragonfly?

Good colours on the body of the Dragonfly, just needed a bit of reflected light to bring out the wings.
The older I get the faster I was.

Great shot Kenty but the boggys do distract a bit,

Hi Kenty
yes I agree with Jack, its a bit overwhelming those bright reddish colours. But the dragonfly came out pretty nice and sharp, just a shame it was perched where it did
